|
|
| serial port. The default is American Standard | |
|
|
| Code for Information Interchange (ASCII). | |
|
|
| If you are configuring the modem port, you can | |
|
|
| configure the port to use either the SLIP or the | |
|
|
| PPP communication mode. | |
|
|
| To configure this option to the default value, use | |
|
|
| the default operator with the command. | |
|
|

|
|
| Nortel recommends that you use the current IP | |
|
|
| address for the management port. To configure | |

|
| |
|
|
| switch assigns this value to any PC that connects | |
|
|
| through the modem port with configured TCP/IP | |
|
|
| properties to obtain an IP address automatically. | |
|
|
| If the client uses a static IP address, the Nortel | |
|
|
| Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 accepts this | |
|
|
| address. If you use Password Authentication | |
|
|
| Protocol (PAP) authentication, you must ensure | |
|
|
| that the client uses the correct IP address. To | |
|
|
| configure this option to the default value, use the | |
|
|
| default operator with the command. | |
|
|
|
| |
| pppfile <file> |
| Specifies the PPP configuration file to provide | |
|

|
|
| than 64 characters. Identify the file in the format | |
|
|
| {a.b.c.d:peer:/pcmcia//flash/}<file>. For more | |
